With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?
DGA poll: Walker 49, Barrett 46
A new internal poll of the Wisconsin recall, commissioned by the Democratic Governors Association, claims that Republican Gov. Scott Walker has only a narrow lead over Democratic Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett.
The poll, conducted by the Democratic-aligned firm the Mellman Group, gives Walker 49 percent to Barrett’s 46 percent. The survey of 600 likely voters was conducted from May 22-24, and has a 4 percent margin of error.
In the firm’s previous poll from a week ago, Walker led 51 percent to 44 percent.
